I didn't do that since having a purchase contract in effect for better part of year especially when we weren't sure when they would qualify seemed "stupid." 

Do some research about what is required to be disclosed in that state, especially since this effects the value of the investment.

Typically most states where you are NOT a resident only effectively tax income specifically attributable to that state in their allocation and appointment calculations. 

You will treat this property as if it is an on market deal.

If your lease is in effect for those 30 days, then you have to be out at the end of the last day and can move your stuff any time before that.

Treat other people how you want to be treated.

@Anthony Buccanero if you are a project manager and are comfortable with processes and "following the lease" and it sounds like you are treating this like a business from the beginning so I'm sure you all will do very well. 

For the HOA boards that I am on, all communication related to a payment plan would have come through the management company as drafted and handled by their attorney on behalf of the HOA.A payment plan that was discussed in writing (email), drafted and signed by you (thus agreed to), and then has been acted upon as agreed by all parties for 7 months (they accepted the payments) - IMHO is effectively "executed".

A trusted mentor taught me long ago... give to charity and volunteer to help others and make the world a better place... but treat your business as a business. 

@Matthew Wilson A BK has no real effect on the lender....as far as foreclosing or doing a short sale...the bank still has the mtg and can foreclose at any time, unless it was a chapter 13 with an approved plan.
